reeferbarra20 Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Howdy all. After 2 years of reefkeeping I am finally going to set up a prop tank and try to get a little collection of my very own "captive" grown corals. With the increasing threat of global warming and pollution that are damaging our world's reefs, its time for us reefkeepers to step up to the plate. I plan to do my part in helping to conserve our reefs by promoting aquaculturing and I encourage all of you to join in. This thread will be an example for others to follow if they too intend to propagate. I encourage others to make suggestions, and comments based on what they see. Enjoy! The folowing is a list of Equipment/ attributes that will be included in my prop system. TANK: 50 gallon breeder LIGHTING : Hamilton 250 15k DE HQI Pendant PROTEIN SKIMMER: ASM G-1X ( modded ) SUMP: custom acrylic sump/fuge Stay tuned!!! Link to comment

You are doing a good thing. BTW, haven't seen you on in a while. Link to comment
ficklefins Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Keep in mind that if you are going to go with a 50g Breeder then don't forget that it has a middle brace. So if you place that MH right in the middle you may lose some of your peak light. 50g Breeder is 36x18x18 and is made by AGA. It doesn't say breeder on their website, but it does say breeder at a LFS. http://www.all-glass.com/products/aquariums/index.html Link to comment
